--> '''Karos Invictad:''' Bruthen makes no comment, ever. He does not even ask what punishments follow our judgements. Furthermore, his rude impatience tires me. [[DisproportionateRetribution It may be worth our while to investigate him.]]

* Sergeant Hellian's liberation of Lether from tavern to tavern, on the basis of a considerably better understanding of the enemy than [[TheStrategist Tavore Paran's]:
--> Gesler’s brows had risen at all that. 'So you've managed what the rest of us haven't – arriving as damned liberators in this town.'
--> Hellian snorted. 'We worked that out weeks back. Never mind the Lurrii soljers, since they're all perfessionals and so's they like things jus' fine so's they's the one y'gotta kill no diff 'rent from the Edur. No, y'go into the hamlets and villages and kill all the 'ficials—’
--> 'The what?' Gesler asked.
--> Urb said, 'Officials. We kill the officials, Gesler. And anybody with money, and the advocates, too.'
--> 'The what?'
--> 'Legal types. Oh, and the money-lenders and debtholders, and the recordkeepers and toll-counters. We kill them all—'
--> 'Along with the soljers,' Hellian added, nodding – and nodding, for some reason finding herself unable to stop. She kept nodding as she said, 'An' what happens then is simple. Looting, lotsa sex, then everybody skittles out, and we sleep in soft beds and drink an' eat in the tavern an' if the keepers hang round we pays for it all nice an' honest—'

** Just after that conversation, Invictad's snarl of frustration, audible through a closed door.
** And in a gallows humour kind of way, when he becomes defensive about the puzzle towards one of his political prisoners, while forcing her to confess to non-existent crimes.

* As Karos Invictad begins to be frustrated with Tehol's puzzle:
--> '''Karos Invictad:''' Not a single arrangement of tiles will halt this confounded, brainless creature. I begin to believe this is a hoax.
--> '''Tanal Yathvanar:''' Were it me, sir, I would have crushed the whole contraption under heel long ago. Indeed it must be a hoax – the proof is that you have not defeated it yet.
--> '''Karos Invictad:''' I do not know which is the more disgusting, you acknowledging defeat by an insect, or your pathetic attempts at flattery.

* In an exceedingly dark way, the Liberty Consign's absurd propaganda justification for its genocidal land-grabbing along the eastern borders of the Empire of Lether:
--> '''Atri-Preda Bivatt:''' The belief of the commmon folk, as promulgated through imperial agents, is that the Awl have allied themselves with the Ak'ryn to the south, as well as the D'rhasilani and the two kingdoms of Bolkando and Saphinand - in short, all the territories bordering the empire - creating a belligerent, warmongering and potentially overwhelming force - [[BlatantLies the Horde of the Bolkando Conspiracy]] - that threatens the entire eastern territories of the Lether Empire. It is only a matter of time before that horde is fully assembled, whereupon it will march.

* Gesler, Stormy and Truth's encounter with their god's last priest goes less than well:
--> '''Felisin:''' He was excommunicated. More than that, he’s the bane of his own god. Of yours, I gather. Beware scorned priests. You’ll have to lead your own prayers to Fener, lads, and I’d advise you to pray. A lot.
